An extruder for the extrusion of a material composed of a mixture of substances in which an extruder screw is rotatably mounted in a feed channel of a housing for advancing the material to an outlet, of the channel whereat a screw tip is coaxially mounted on the extruder screw and is disposed with clearance in a distributor channel extending in prolongation of the feed channel to receive the material from the extruder screw and feed the material to a discharge outlet of the distributor channel. The screw tip has a discharge surface at an end thereof remote from the extruder screw, which includes a plurality of surface portions ascending generally helically in the direction of flow of the material. The surface portions can be flat or form a continuous discharge surface. A conveyor channel for material is formed in the screw tip and extends over an angular portion of the screw tip from a radial discharge edge of the discharge surface so that the conveyor channel is entirely open at the outer periphery of the screw tip.
